To install the CI interface tip seal

Materials needed:
Interface tip seal (G1099-60412)
The interface tip seal must be in place for CI operation. It is necessary to achieve
adequate ion source pressure for CI.
C A U T I O N Electrostatic discharges to analyzer components are conducted to the side board where
they can damage sensitive components. Wear a grounded anti-static wrist strap
and take other anti-static precautions EHIRUH you open the vacuum manifold.

When the analyzer is aligned correctly, the analyzer can be closed all the way with
no resistance except the spring tension from the interface tip seal.
C A U T I O N Forcing the analyzer closed if these parts are misaligned will damage the seal or the
interface or the ion source, or will keep the sideplate from sealing.

If the analyzer still won't close, contact your Hewlett-Packard service
representative.
